Constipation is a common and frequent disease in elderly and middle-aged women. Especially for elderly women over 60 years old, the incidence of constipation is high due to decreased intestinal function, accounting for about 70% of intestinal diseases. Middle aged and young women, on the other hand, are mostly affected by work pressure. They spend long periods of time at their desks, lack exercise, and have irregular diets, making them a concentrated group of people suffering from constipation.
In daily life, both dietary and psychological factors can induce constipation. If we consume too little fiber in our daily diet, it can lead to a lack of effective stimulation in the gastrointestinal tract, causing slow peristalsis and resulting in constipation. In addition, when intestinal obstruction occurs, food retention in the intestine can also lead to constipation. Similarly, once our rectal stress decreases, even if feces enter, it cannot send out signals of defecation. Some people suffer from anal diseases such as anal fissures, hemorrhoids, perianal abscesses, etc., which cause severe pain during defecation, leading to fear of defecation and causing constipation. On the other hand, negative psychological factors can also hinder the natural defecation reflex, gradually leading to severe constipation.
The harm of constipation cannot be ignored, as it can bring many adverse problems to the human body. Due to the accumulation of fecal matter in the intestine for a long time, it undergoes abnormal fermentation and decay, releasing a large amount of toxins, which can cause acne, facial pigmentation, rash, etc. Moreover, the accumulation of toxins in the intestines can lead to edema in the large intestine, slowing down blood circulation in the lower body and causing what we commonly refer to as a pear shaped figure. Meanwhile, long-term constipation can lead to the accumulation of toxins, as well as embarrassing symptoms such as bad breath and body odor.
To treat constipation, in addition to seeking medical attention in a timely manner and seizing the best treatment opportunity, we can also use probiotics to regulate and achieve the goal of prevention and improvement.
